Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an approver paging device for efficiently searching for approvers from a remote location.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, the development of data networks has been remarkable, and smooth communication can be achieved between the main office (head office) and satellite offices (out-office) using a videophone system or personal computer communication. , Even between offices that are physically far apart, business is becoming faster by overcoming the distance. Therefore, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 5-121539, the responsibility is clear and security is provided, and the communication line is used speedily even between physically distant offices. Various electronic stamping system devices have been devised that are capable of various approval processes.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] By the way, in the same office, "who is a suitable approver among a plurality of bosses, and if the suitable person is present, get an approval seal" , The next candidate will get an approval stamp if he is absent ”. However, for example, if the approval requester who receives the approval is in the satellite office,
In cases where the authorizing authority on the decision making side is in a physically remote main office, the above-mentioned judgment is often difficult immediately, and prompt approval is required. However, there was a problem that it caused a loss of business opportunity.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the purpose thereof is to make it possible to access the most appropriate approver at the present time with respect to the approval request that has occurred, and to quickly An object of the present invention is to provide an approver paging device capable of performing an approval act.

[0005]

The present invention solves the above problems. Therefore, in the invention of claim 1, the approval requester for the approval requester to obtain the approval of the authority holder quickly. A paging device, comprising: a privilege holder management device that stores a privilege holder for each type of approval; and an attendee management device that controls the presence status of the privilege holder.

Further, in the invention according to claim 2, an authority holder management device for storing the authority holder for each decision type, and an attendee management apparatus for controlling the presence status of the authority holder. An approval agent paging device comprising: a decision type recognition means for recognizing a decision type; and a right holder management device access for reading a right holder from the right holder management device based on the recognition of the decision type recognition means. Means, an attendee management device access means for reading out the presence / absence data of the authority holder from the attendee management device, and an attendance among the authority holders read by the authority holder management device access means The present invention is characterized in that there is provided seated authority holder data transmission means for transmitting data that the authority holder can understand.

Further, in the invention according to claim 3, the authority holder management device for storing the authority holder for each decision type together with the priority order, and the person occupying the presence status of the authority holder An approver paging device including a management device, wherein the authorization type recognition means for recognizing an authorization type, and the authority holder and the priority order of the authority holder based on the recognition of the authorization type recognition means Privilege holder management device access means for reading from the holder management device, resident management device access means for reading the presence / absence data of the privilege holder from the attendee management device, and the privilege holder management device access It is characterized in that priority transmission means for transmitting the approval request data to the approval terminal of the highest priority person who is present among the authority holders read out by the means is provided.

[0008]

With the above-mentioned configuration, the invention according to claim 1 can be obtained.
In the described invention, the authority holder management device can grasp who and who is the authorization authority holder of the type, and the in-person management apparatus can identify the authorization authority holder of the type. Can recognize who and who are present. Therefore, there is an inconvenience that the approval request data is transmitted to the person who is the holder of the approval authority of the type but cannot perform the immediate approval act at the present time, and the approval act is delayed in time. It can be prevented.

According to the second aspect of the invention, the authority holder management device can grasp who is the decision-making authority holder of the type and who is the decision-making authority holder. The authority currently present among the authority holders who can recognize who is among the holders of approval authority of each type and who is present and who can approve the approval of the approval requester. The holder can tell who he is and who he is. Therefore, the approval requester can accurately transmit the approval request data to the currently-owned authority holder who can approve the approval. That is, there is an inconvenience that the approval request data is transmitted to a person who is the holder of the approval authority of the type but is not present at the moment and cannot perform the immediate approval operation, and the approval operation is delayed in time. It can be prevented.

Further, in the invention according to claim 3, the authorization holder management device gives priority to who and who is the authorization authority holder of the type and when the authority holder is absent. You can grasp how the ranking is done. From the occupant management device, it is possible to recognize who and who of the decision-making authority holders of that type are present. Therefore, the approval request data
It is possible to automatically deliver to an authorized person who is present and has a high priority. That is, the approval request data is transmitted to a person who is the holder of the approval authority of the type but is not present at the moment and cannot perform the immediate approval action.
It is possible to prevent the inconvenience that the approval act is delayed in time.
